It’s hard to imagine, but many of the original Mustang features were not patented until well after the car was in production. These days the modern Mustang is a rolling piece of intellectual property and that sort of innovation is what’s being celebrated at the National Inventors Hall of Fame Museum by a unique fusion of a classic 1965 Mustang and a modern 2015 Mustang.

If you visit the museum, you’ll be able to sit on either side of the 60/60 display and compare the modest features of the classic Mustang with the technical tour de force that is the 2015 Mustang.
